Marine Steam Boilers: Fourth Edition deals with the involved concepts, parts and construction, usage and maintenance, and the future direction of steam boilers. The book covers topics such as the history of steam boilers; theoretical development of steam boilers; and the materials and methods used in their construction. Also covered are the types of boilers - the tank-type boiler, which includes horizontal and vertical boilers; water tube boilers such as the Foster Wheeler boiler, Babcock & Wilcox boilers, and combustion engineering boilers; and dual-fired boilers.

This secondary steam is then used to power auxiliary shipboard engines driving winches or pumps, or to meet any steam requirement that does not require superheating, such as and freshwater. Types [ ] Low-pressure steam generators [ ] A typical generator uses inlet steam supplied at 600 psi to produce around 10,000 lb/hour at around 120 psi. It is constructed as a cylindrical steel pressure vessel, either horizontal or vertical, containing a series of heating coils. The design bears a strong resemblance to a, though simpler, as it uses treated feedwater, rather than -producing raw seawater. References [ ].
